I sorted of get what you mean, because we don’t have many players in our squad, let alone team who score goals, however, at the same time, to me it does look a very attacking minded team. Strange one. Quote Link to comment

Better Red Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Slowest front six in the championship. Lucky if they get 15 goals plus between them. Midfield 2 are not mobile enough. Scott & Palmer in the same side is a mistake. We have better players on the bench or not even in the squad. No chance of anything other than a defeat. We need a major rethink or we are in deep trouble 2 2 Quote Link to comment

Oh yeah, when was that then? You expecting us to pass Boro off the pitch then? To do so you still need to move quickly - who's that then? - as well as pass accurately, multiple times - again, who's been doing that any time of late? Full marks for optimism, I'll give you that.

Ivorguy Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Nige is clearly trying to establish a way of playing and to do so with a regular side. We all know we need a centre forward but at moment Martin is the best we’ve got for that role in Nige’s view. Wells is not the type of centre forward Nige wants. He is also not a prolific goal scorer - av of 10 in last five seasons. Interesting to see if Janneh makes an appearance. My guess he will. Take out the question of the centre forward, and, IMO, this has the makings of a decent Championship side, give it a few seasons and it could be a really good side. We don’t know with Kalas what has gone on behind the scenes. I trust Nige’s judgment. 3 Quote Link to comment

Covid obviously has a massive part to play in that but still, absolutely nothing to get excited about with this group of players. How is covid to blame? (I'm probably missing something obvious here) Quote Link to comment

No need to be a sarky. Just my opinion. Obviously the side is lacking. But if you haven’t got a bit of optimism what’s the point. You on here now just to moan and say how shit we are Quote Link to comment
